Chapter 384: Chapter 381 Three Demons

"Is it really just a kid?"

Three Demon Qi presences, resembling a snake, a scorpion, and a wolf, successively appeared in midair. However, upon seeing Ye Xuan’s figure, they couldn’t help but be momentarily stunned, clearly taken aback.

This was the Ice Prison, where Sky Demon Mountain held its serious criminals. How had a mere kid gotten in? Could it be that Sky Demon Mountain had fallen? That this Ice Prison was unguarded, allowing a child to break in?

"Kid, how did you get in here? And why did you disturb the altar?"

One of the Demon Qi images blinked several times then descended from midair to close in on Ye Xuan, speaking coldly.

However, facing this Demon Qi image, Ye Xuan’s expression remained unchanged. Hearing these words, he merely smiled lightly, "I came from the Yellow Springs Cave. Sorry, I’m here to find someone and accidentally disturbed the three of you. You can go back now."

The reason Ye Xuan had activated the altar was just to confirm whether this was the place where Su Ying was being held. Since it wasn’t, he didn’t intend to waste any more time.

"Go back? Hmph, you think you can just walk away after waking us three brothers up from our sleep? Wishful thinking," the scorpion-shaped Demon sneered, its eyes flashing green as it spoke menacingly.

"Scorpion Demon, this kid said he came from the Yellow Springs Cave, the one where there’s no return? If this kid made it through the Yellow Springs Cave, he might be quite capable," another serpent-shaped Demon said ominously.

"How could that be possible? Don’t get frightened by this kid’s few words. Yellow Springs Cave, even a Half-step Demon Venerable couldn’t break into it, let alone a wet-behind-the-ears child," the wolf-shaped Demon scoffed clearly disbelieving Ye Xuan’s words.

"You’re right, kid. As a penalty for disturbing us, Three Demons, hand over your life. It’s been a long while since we had a feast..."

The three Demon Qi images’ pupils simultaneously revealed a brutal glint, their demonic energy darkening the skies, as if they intended to shred Ye Xuan into pieces.

"Just the three of you?"

Ye Xuan stood firm, his eyes calm, and then hooked up the corners of his mouth, "Not to mention that your true bodies are still sealed, even if they weren’t, the three of you combined wouldn’t be a match for me."

"Arrogant! We’ll devour you now!"

The three Demons’ eyes flashed with mockery, and immediately, three Demonic Qi images surged, opening their dark gaping mouths and biting towards Ye Xuan.

"Foolish beyond measure."

As the three gaping maws came at him, Ye Xuan’s eyes suddenly flashed with a sharp color, and instantly his Dragon Abyss Sword, like lightning unsheathed, swept out like a startled swan. In an instant, a blue Sword Qi tore through the firmament, splitting the void in half.

Ah!

The three Demon Qi images were shattered by Ye Xuan’s single sword strike, where the Sword Qi passed, traces of blue smoke appeared on the bodies of the three images, dissipating into oblivion.

Clang!

Sheathing his sword, Ye Xuan continued forward nonchalantly.

"Wait!"

A slightly flustered voice came from the nearest mountain.

"What now? Wasn’t the lesson just now enough?"

Ye Xuan frowned slightly. Were these guys truly relentless?

"No, please don’t misunderstand, sir. We’ve realized our mistake. You mentioned you were searching for someone; maybe we could be of help," the voice inside the mountain spoke again.

"Yes, we brothers have been confined within this Ice Prison for fifty years; we know it well,"

Another voice echoed from a different mountain.

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Ye Xuan suddenly stopped his steps. Their words had indeed stirred his interest; true enough, these three Demons, being sealed in the Ice Prison for years, naturally knew the place far better than him, a first-time visitor. Perhaps, these guys would know something about his mother’s whereabouts.

"Dragon Girl Su Ying, who was imprisoned here over a decade ago—do you three know anything about her?"

Ye Xuan didn’t bother to conceal his intentions, turning to face the mountain that had spoken.

"Dragon Girl Su Ying? The serious criminal sent here over a decade ago by Sky Demon Mountain, that exceptionally talented individual?"

The voice inside the mountain carried a clear surprise, apparently not expecting Ye Xuan to be searching for that person.

"Yes, it seems you know."

Ye Xuan’s eyes brightened. If he could learn something from these three, his subsequent actions would undoubtedly be much easier.

"Of course we know. The Ice Prison is so small, they only bring in a person every few years. The Dragon Girl Su Ying you mentioned is one of the three most important criminals held here. She is confined in the most central part of the Land of Sin. The seal of the Land of Sin is extremely powerful, and it’s covered by an Illusion Array. Without deep knowledge of the Ice Prison, it’s difficult to locate," the voice became tremulous, obviously holding a trace of reverence, even fear, for that Land of Sin.

"The Land of Sin?"

Ye Xuan’s pupils slightly contracted. He knew very little about the Ice Prison and had not expected that it had its own universe, let alone something called the Land of Sin, which he had never heard of before.

Now, he had extracted some useful information from the mouths of the Three Demons.

"Do you know the location of the Land of Sin?"

Ye Xuan’s eyes flickered, then he looked up and asked.

"We know, of course we know."

One of the voices hastily spoke up, "The number of people in the Ice Prison who know the location of the Land of Sin is very few, but we three brothers just happen to know."

No sooner had the voice spoken than Ye Xuan turned around, "clang," the Dragon Abyss Ancient Sword was drawn from its sheath, and he then fiercely slashed it down on the altar, splitting the altar into two.

Boom boom!

As the altar split, the surrounding ground also cracked inch by inch, and with it, three mountain peaks also collapsed.

Instantaneously, three extremely dense Demon Qis surged up from the collapsing mountains, rendering the entire sky black.

"Hahaha, excellent, we three brothers can finally escape this damned place!"

Three extremely dense demonic airs spurted out, filling the world, and along with them came the mad laughter of the three demons, which almost made the ground tremble.

Demonic energies gathered, and three dark shadows appeared in the dim half-sky.

"You three, now take me to the Land of Sin. Only after you’ve done this, you’ll truly be free."

Ye Xuan looked at the three dark shadows, his face expressing indifference. He had split the altar and released these three demon lords not for fun, but to have these three major demons lead the way, taking him to the location of the Land of Sin as quickly as possible.

"Take you to the Land of Sin? What a joke, that place is a haunted locale, filled with countless dangers. Who in their right mind would go there, seeking death?"

A mocking voice came from one of the dark shadows.

"You three think of reneging?"

Ye Xuan raised his eyebrows.

"Renege? We never agreed to anything. You’re the fool who broke the seal and released us. Boy, you’re too naive!"

"That’s right, we three brothers are too busy, and we don’t have time to go seek someone with you. Considering that you broke the seal and let us out, we won’t kill you. We’ll spare your little life."

"Is that so? I was actually hoping for a bit of a challenge, but never mind. As long as we escape, isn’t the outside world ours to roam freely as the Three Demons?"

The three dark shadows all burst into loud laughter, clearly not taking Ye Xuan’s words to heart, and they were about to leave.

"Thinking of leaving?"

Seeing the three preparing to leave the place, Ye Xuan’s gaze turned cold, and immediately, his figure blurred, leaving a trail of afterimages behind, while he himself had already appeared in front of the three demons.

Without a second glance, Ye Xuan struck out with his sword directly.

"You insolent brat, refusing a toast only to drink a forfeit! Seeking death!"

Seeing Ye Xuan attack fiercely, the three demon lords also roared angrily. Previously, although they had been defeated by Ye Xuan, that was just the projection of their Demon Qi, but now they weren’t just projections; their real bodies were acting, and for Ye Xuan to engage them in combat was undoubtedly a suicidal act.

From the bodies of the three demons surged tremendous Demon Qi, as they launched their attacks, their immense demonic powers sweeping out like tidal waves.

Bam bam bam!

Sword Qi and demonic power collided violently, creating a series of explosive sounds like rapid-fire cannon shots. The next moment, all those demonic powers completely collapsed, and the three demon heads were sent reeling back, blood spilling from the corners of their mouths.

"How is this possible?"

All three demon heads were immensely shocked, their eyes wide as they stared at Ye Xuan. Although they had been suppressed in the realm of the Seventh Grade Demon King and could not break through, they were all at the threshold of surpassing it. Just absorbing enough spiritual energy from nature, they could have broken through.

Even though they had been trapped in the Ice Prison, greatly weakened, that they couldn’t even block a single strike from Ye Xuan was inconceivable.

This young man, his strength was definitely not as simple as it appeared on the surface, he was no ordinary character.

"Since I dared to release you, I was confident I could subdue you."

Ye Xuan said with a detached look in his eyes.

"Arrogant! To dare to underestimate us, the real power of us Three Demons, is not something you can take lightly!"

The three demons were enraged by Ye Xuan’s disdainful attitude. When they were rampant in the Demon Beast World, Ye Xuan wasn’t even born, how could such a youngster dare to look down on them? It was preposterous.

Little did they know that in the eyes of Ye Xuan, the Martial God who had once traversed the Heavenly Realm, they were indeed merely ants.
